Well, I’m trying to get rid of that lame Mambo CMS that hasn’t been updated in over a year, and I’m slowly replacing it with WordPress.

The good news is that all the content has been converted, the bad news is that I haven’t been able to find a good way to rewrite the “old” URLs to the “new” URL’s via an .htaccess file, so that’s still a work in progress.

I still need to edit a few things from the Mambo articles, but I’m farther along than I thought I’d be.

I’m starting the new blog software off right with an old image reference to SneakyDave web hosting days. Jealous? I’m sure.

I've upgraded Mambo, and it alleviate a few problems I was having with this CMS, which allowed me to reinstitute the archive area on the right. Eventually, I hope to integrate the CMS with the forums a little bit.

Just the last year's worth of information is kept in the "current" news. Everything else (since January 2004) is in the archives.
